King County Exec Dow Constantine on Combatting Coronavirus; How to “Slay the Dragon” of Gerrymandering

This week, with coronavirus continuing to spread in King County, we speak with King County Executive Dow Constantine to get the latest on what’s being done to contain it, how and where we can get accurate information, and about how residents can stay healthy and safe.

Then, we speak with the creators of the new documentary about gerrymandering, “Slay the Dragon.” Filmmakers Barak Goodman and Chris Durrance join us to talk about how the GOP has weaponized redistricting in the United States, and about how citizen activists are standing up and fighting back.
